If I’m ever at all anxious, I put YouTube on my TV and watch an amazingly comforting series called Intimate Portraits, which focuses on one woman in Hollywood per episode. The subjects are usually from the Golden Age of Hollywood up until about the 80’s or 90’s. The usually English female narrators talk so slowly and precisely about Bacall’s depression or Garland’s divorces, it weirdly makes me feel so relaxed and distracted. My favorite episode is on Lauren Bacall, and once you watch one, you can’t stop!

such a good documentary!!! i would've become obsesseddddd with this when i was in film school. as a music agent i'm always talking about the importance of knowing your copyright and *personality* rights as an artist, and this does a great job of highlighting that.

there is certain type of extrovert that seems to believe that if you are introverted or shy you haven't reached your full potential, like you're only a half-baked pie, waiting for someone to come "pull you out of your shell" (-_-)...
i am not a flower waiting to bloom! i am not an unfinished garment! THIS IS THE DEAL! take it or leave it, don't try to shape things you don't understand into something you do.
no one owes you their bared soul.

Nothing fills me with dread quite like the cry of "Let's play a game!" at any social gathering. Icy hatred drips down my spine at the mention of them.
The yelling, the looking at me, the boredom, the rules I can't remember, the endlessness of each round, the heightened emotions... WHY CAN'T WE JUST TALK?! ESPECIALLY in a social gathering where I don't really know many people.
I have seen people I love be transformed and distorted by their competitiveness into hateful screeching banshees. It's terrying. Maybe I'm too sensitive, I don't care. I don't have a competitive bone in my body. I genuinely do not understand how a board game is an acceptable space to yell at people. Being yelled at over something that couldn't possible matter less is WORSE than being yelled at for a proper reason.
The worst kind of board games are the ones that involve performing. They make me want to jump out of the nearest window.
I'd rather someone brought out a crack pipe than a board game at a party.
